The tracks "GO!" and "FaSHioN" each surpassed 100 million streams on Spotify after 116 and 132 days, respectively, and both are approaching 200 million streams.

"REDRED" achieved its 52nd number one on Spotify's Daily Top Songs in Korea as of June 23, marking the highest number of chart-toppers for a single song by a K-pop boy group since the chart's inception in 2021. Additionally, it maintained the top position on Apple Music's Top 100 in Korea for 60 consecutive days as of June 24.

CORTIS is set to embark on overseas performances in the second half of the year. They have been invited to perform at the Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix 2026, taking place at the Marina Bay Circuit from October 9 to 11, where they will headline the main stage on the first day.
